This was absolutely the best place to stay for what I was needing as a solo traveler. I arrived a bit earlier than check in time and because my room was ready, they allowed me to go ahead and check in. The room was clean and spacious and offered all the amenities I could have needed. The washing machine and drying rack allowed me to clean my clothes, which was a huge comfort to have. The location was also in a nice quiet part of town but close enough that I could easily walk to the tube station and a nice selection of restaurants. I will absolutely stay here again when I return in the future.

I had a lovely room on the top floor. This meant a lot of walking up stairs, but the room was worth it. Clean, tidy, and well-decorated, the room was very cosy. Noise insulation was fine, there was a safe in the room, and the ensuite was stylish and modern.
